Management Consultant at Accenture
Has significantly improved document-driven workflows and reduced processing time across finance and HR functions
Automation Anywhere has evolved significantly and upgraded itself to provide agentic AI and AI-based automation solutions for document automation. The product has matured considerably over time. We can create workflows that can call an API. We can include prompts in particular workflows for ChatGPT-related functions, connecting to an LLM and RAG to perform tasks. For document automation, modern features are available to train documents, ensuring high accuracy and repeatability over time. The system is very easy to use. I recently completed a course in document automation, typically designed for people involved in coding and technical aspects. Though I understand coding comprehensively, I don't do actual coding. The course was very accessible. Currently, extensive coding isn't necessary due to the hybrid model incorporating GenAI aspects, low-code, no-code capabilities, APIs, and numerous pre-built objects in Automation Anywhere. The features include GenAI-driven prompting methods and workflow creation capabilities. In these workflows, we can create decision boxes and call APIs without coding. We simply pull objects, drop them, connect them, and add minimal coding when needed. The most crucial aspect isn't coding but rather sizing the automation and fleshing out the details. Automation Co-pilot takes notes and performs automated analysis. It can extract details from videos, summarize conversations, and provide detailed information. During calls, it identifies instructions and performs tasks such as preparing reports and reconciliation. Automation Anywhere can also connect with Microsoft Co-pilot. Through Co-pilot, real-time operations can be executed, allowing direct interaction between vendors and automation through this component.

Automation has streamlined client data extraction and has improved reporting for business decisions
I work as a developer, and my manager is responsible for the research and analytics for the project with the client and business users. I am satisfied with BotFarm. I would rate my experience with BotFarm an eight out of ten. I do not see any room for improvement for BotFarm. I am using AI tools such as Amazon, Microsoft Azure, and ChatGPT. I am not using AI-powered bots in BotFarm. I am a partner with Automation Anywhere.

Effective document automation with strong integration capabilities and very good support
Our primary use case for Nintex RPA involves getting documents from emails, reading those documents, and transferring them from the IRD to finance. We are also exploring the LP and Intech features for more advanced use cases Nintex RPA helps our government and public sector customers with…

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"With the help of Bot, it has increased the productivity of the current process and we do not need to spend more time on error resolution and rectification."
"Even as we were getting into RPA for the first time, I found it easy to understand this tool."
"Not all tools give us the clear utilization of the infrastructure in place but this does and trust me, this has been proved far better than other RPA tools and that is why I see AA booming day by day."
"The most valuable features of Automation Anywhere are Excel, periods, database, and email action."
"The data capture feature is very valuable. I know there are also some elements where you have to be able to incorporate AI, but I haven't gotten to that level yet."
"Implementation of Automation Anywhere (AA) allows us to automate business processes and has brought productivity gains, error reduction, and speed of execution in multiple HR and Finance operations."
"This product is easy to use, and it helps business users to more easily understand RPA."
"The most valuable feature is its Excel integration."
"The solution reduces manual data errors and improves data accuracy"
"The most valuable features I have found to be the screen scraping and the integration with third-party solutions."
"Productivity increased far more than thirty percent."
"The system is stable and very little maintenance is required, assuming the bots process is perfectly designed."
"There are not many challenges when setting up this solution, and there is a good amount of documentation to go with it."
"Automation Anywhere is a very good solution if you're looking to expand all your work areas."
"The most valuable feature is the rapid deployment of multiple bots."
"Automation Anywhere has good document extraction features where it can learn patterns."
"It has been helpful in reducing the manpower and error rate since we are able to run tasks 24/7 without interruptions. As humans definitely take breaks and there may be absenteeism that is unexpected, the solution provides continuous work. Humans tend to make errors once in a while, but the solution has almost zero percent errors."
"[One of the valuable features] is the triggers. It's relatively simple to activate it. You can activate it via Control-M or via email. It has a lot of built-in triggers which enable us to easily activate the jobs."
"Once I decide a process is suitable as a Kryon solution, the cycle of automation is quite quick. I learn about the manual process and I'm one of the two guys who program the Kryon environment. It's relatively simple. There are many details, but once you understand the concept it is quite easy."
"Those 15,000 hours saved are a fantastic result and we're at a 99 percent success rate."
"This rate system has allowed us to be more responsive and competitive with our rates with less human involvement."
"Since then, we've been able to close numerous claims and therefore reduce our reserves by literally millions of dollars."
"Operational efficiency has increased more than 50 to 60 percent."
"Kryon RPA is very stable - we've not had many disruptions, and the product is updated regularly."
 

Cons

"More and more innovation is going on, and they'll have to keep adding features to keep up with the market. They have generative AI on their platform, but that's a new part. They are working on it. It's not 100 percent foolproof, but eventually it will get better. They need to work on their AI capabilities."
"Companies need to better justify the ROI before usage - otherwise, they might spend money on things unnecessarily."
"I could not say it's a stable product, because when you move in the market, there are many companies are there."
"The inclusion of word packages would help us to extract data from Word and automate word-related activities easily."
"I could personally use automated testing, which we currently do not have in Automation Anywhere."
"They have done a fairly good job on the RPA space, but more and more, the whole cognitive AI space and machine learning are where I see the industry actually going. I'm sure Automation Anywhere is also focused on that topic, but we would like to see more coming down the pipe, as early as possible."
"We have trouble with large volumes of data in Excel and are not getting good results."
"As far as stability is concerned, there have been some challenges. Sometimes, we experience our computers freezing up for no apparent reason or the network being inaccessible."
"It would be ideal if the solution offered more language options, such as Arabic."
"The deployment could be made a little bit easier."
"The user experience could be made a little better with this solution. I find it difficult to find qualified people to be able to use the solution."
"One aspect that can be improved is the accessibility of reusable components for developers. It relates to role-based access and accessibility."
"Sometimes I feel like it doesn't work properly and we are not able to provide the dexterity needed."
"The only challenge that we have faced with BotFarm is that there is no continuous deployment. The whole world is moving to the DevOps model, but BotFarm is still not on the DevOps model. It should have integration with the DevOps model. The migration of the bots or bots pipeline is currently purely manual."
"Its UI could be made better. It should also be more flexible."
"The OCR command needs to improve. This feature is used to convert the extracted data from an image file. While converting this file I was facing a lot of issues with the data because it was getting lost and some of the data which was extracted was mismatched. The data loss was rated as a nine and the data accuracy was a massive decrease and was up to 80%."
"Further simplifying the low-code development process can attract a broader user base by making automation accessible to those with minimal technical skills."
"We need better training and community support in Indonesia."
"What we are lacking is OCR, the ability to read text."
"I would expect that in the first year there is no ROI. It has to be measured over three or five years."
"The process discovery tool of Kryon RPA could be improved because of its limitations."
"It could be more reliable in spying HTML."
"Kryon RPA need to enhance the robustness of our multi-board architecture to ensure the availability of bots on multiple machines."
"I would like to see a better OCR solution."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Automation Anywhere has an advantage in terms of licensing. It is more cost-efficient compared to all other RPA platforms. It is a recommended solution when clients need a cost-efficient automation tool to perform unattended automation."
"Automation Anywhere's pricing is significantly higher than other RPA solutions."
"The Automation Anywhere license is affordable and not complex."
"Annual licensing costs would be about $100,000."
"They are already coming out with a community license, which is really good. That's something that I wish to have."
"The pricing of AA is similar to UiPath."
"In terms of pricing, this is a good product."
"We were required to purchase licenses and bot runners, which determined the permissible run times for the bots."
"The pricing is fair."
"There is a license for this solution and it is on an annual basis. I am satisfied with the price."
"The starter price is free."
"Our licensing costs are approximately $3,000 USD annually."
"We are on an annual license for the solution and is priced well."
"I am very happy with the pricing."
"The pricing model could be simplified."
"The license of this solution is on an annual basis. The price is fair. However, what we did initially was a POC, but now we are looking at moving from a POC to expanding it out further. I would appreciate some kind of discount."
"We have been able to alleviate two FTEs, which was a big savings for us. We were able to reuse those resources in other locations. It is over 5000 hours a year in total savings."
"Compared to its competitors, Kryon RPA's pricing is very competitive."
"Can't beat the price... There are different pricing levels for every bot or unattended bot. You can buy however many you want. You'll need an additional virtual machine for it to work on."
"For an unattended robot it's $6000 a month."
"In addition to the standard licensing costs, there are manpower costs."
"The product has reasonable pricing."
"They license per robot and we have 25 robots. You get so many robot licenses and can allocate those licenses to either attended, unintended, or Process Discovery bots. If you have 25 licenses, for example, you could have 20 automation bots and five process discovery. This allocation is flexible. There are also maintenance costs."
"The price is affordable."
